you may have already guessed that it wouldn't last long. and yes, that is a Charlie Brown tree in the background. ;-D
my dining table is back to it's normal now (whatever THAT is)...
and yes! i painted the deer!
this Christmas has arrived fast...
and i'm not ready.
my normal "Merrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry Christmas!" is coming out more like, "*pfffffft* Merry Christmas".
Jill at Jill Ruth & Co. found the words that I couldn't.
"... the real meaning of the season is not lost, but found even in the midst of the stress. Keeping my eyes on the star."
i'm going to spend the week-end stargazing... see if I can't remember what Christmas is all about.
comin' to you LIVE from a single-wide where I just adore the memories - new and old - that Christmas holds... and the way that Jill finds words that elude me.
p.s. the "resident teen's" girlfriend brought me the peppermints 'cause she knows they make me smile... does that mean she likes me?

It's okay, total neutral doesn't work for me either. I think your decor, including the Charlie Brown tree, is just fab. Love the deer. Keep your eyes on the star!
ReplyDeleteOh I love your Charlie Brown Christmas tree. I just watched that show last night and it is still as cute as ever. Your ornaments are very pretty. I like the color too.

ReplyDeleteCB's tree is perfect, as is your decor. You have a beautiful center piece, Robelyn. Never forget that star ...
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas

My Grandma had frosted bell ornaments just like that! God bless you as you keep your eyes on that Special Star - I am too!

It turned out beautiful! And it's always good when the 'girlfriend' brings you a treat. I'm enjoying the things my son's fiance bring to me. Have a Merry Christmas and keep your eye on the star!
ReplyDeleteI die. I want to come to your house now! I love this decor!!
ReplyDeleteLuLu~*xoxo
I think that definitely means she likes you Robelyn! And I say 'why do neutrals when there are so many beautiful colors to enjoy?'
ReplyDeleteI love your centerpieces with your vintage ornaments and santa on horseback the your grandparents created together!!!
loving the vintage ornaments. They remind me of my youth!
ReplyDeletepeppermints--yeah, she might think you're special.

I am sooooo not ready for xmas this year. Then again, I rarely am. I'm sort of the Grinch...kinda.
ReplyDeleteLove your decorations! Those do put me in the Xmas mood. So happy (and I remember my mother having some similar decorations from the 1960s). Fun, fun, fun. If by any chance this week goes like this month has, I better wish you a very Merry Christmas now! Enjoy your holiday! Thanks for being so wonderful the whole year and for coming to my blog. You are a doll.
Darlin'...I got stars in my eyes.

I love Robelyn!!!!!!!!!!!XOXOXO
ReplyDeleteOh Robelyn, I'm laying on the couch after a bout of the nasty bug my kids had and just thinking that it will be ok and then I come here and have you remind me about my own words. Just what i needed to hear. Keeping my eyes on the star and all will be well. what doesn't get done ..oh well.
